Pre-assembly required: Nickel(II) complexes containing a Schiff-base ligand derived from tris(2-aminoethyl)amine and acetylacetone, salicylaldehyde, or ortho-vanillin

[Display omitted] •Schiff-base pre-assembly versus one-pot synthesis give different Ni(II) complexes.•Ni(II) complexes identified by IR, UV–VIS, elemental analysis and X-ray diffraction.•Select Ni(II) complexes fully inhibit growth of pathogenic yeast Candida albicans. We have prepared and character...
